Vital Signs was acquired by GE in October 2008 and sold on January 1, 2014 to Carefusion; CareFusion was acquired by BD in October 2014 (deal is waiting final sign off). Before all of this, Vital Signs was a great company to work for and was owned by a man who believed in keeping manufacturing in New Jersey. It took Carefusion no time at all to announce that the facilities in New Jersey and Colorado would be shuttered and moved to Mexico!!! So, CareFusion destroyed what was once Vital Signs and now they are the ones who will need to be concerned about their jobs. I have never met such nasty and untruthful people as the Carefusion group.
Correction: Vital Signs was owned by a nasty sociopath who presided over a company in which people were considered "old-timers" if they stayed past lunch. Those who stuck around were mainly people with no college degree and no where else to go. Some of them were sleazy perverts. I was never more embarrassed than when I made the mistake in working for Vital Signs.
Well said. I worked for them and they paid peanuts compared to other companies. All they wanted to do was role play and make you share a room at every sales meeting.
